Chapter 283
Adenauer subtly offered me a favor. He knew he didn’t want to contact Aaron, so he offered to help me
ask him for help. But I hesitated because he didn’t want to owe people any favors. And he wasn’t sure
who didn’t want to own this favor.
She didn’t know how close Adenauer and Aaron were. But I assumed that my existence had caused
discord between them. Besides, Aaron had yed with my feelings like he yed with the other
women. If Adenauer told him about me, thetter might make fun of him.
After thinking about it, I made up my mind and said, “Forget it. Are you busy with work now?”
“Don’t worry about that. You are always my priority.”
“So, you are indeed busy now.”
Feeling warmth in my heart, I became more determined and said, “You should go back to work. I can
figure it out myself.”
Adenauer was silent on the other end of the phone.
I hastened to exin: “Don’t get me wrong! David makes me nauseous and gives me a psychological
shadow. I don’t want to ask my boyfriend to help me with my problems right now.”
Adenauer was speechless, then burst outughing.
“Well, since you insist on it, I wish you all the best. However, do not hesitate to contact me if you need
help.”
After hanging up the phone, I took a deep breath.
After finding Aaron’s number, I looked at the screen but hesitated to call him, feeling more nervous than
the first booty call! He was willing to do anything for Nick. But was this the only way? Did she have to

call Aaron?
I got out of bed and paced by the window with my phone. Though I’d racked my brain, I still couldn’t
think of anyone I knew on bad terms with David. So I gave up and called Aaron.
After arriving in the United States, I always forgot about the time difference. However, since Adenauer
was awake, Aaron shouldn’t be going to bed either.After dialing the number, my heart started racing
and even my body temperature rose significantly.
Iforted myself in my heart, “Don’t be so nervous. She will make fun of me or humiliate me at the
most. As long as I can find a way to deal with David, it will be worth it.”
Aaron couldn’t appear in front of me over the phone anyway. And he wouldn’t lose anything after
hearing some harsh words. However, he did not answer the call after a long time. As time passed, my
heart gradually sank. And I felt lost.
He didn’t even want to answer my call now. But it was understandable. After all, I had teased him
harshly that morning.He was the CEO and the second son of the Morris Group, so it was normal for
him to be angry with me. Maybe he had blocked my number for a long time.
I decided to let Adenauer contact him. At least Aaron was still willing to answer his calls. After all, my
priority now was helping Nick survive the crisis in his career.
As he was about to hang up the phone, I saw the duration of the call on the screen start to increase out
of the corner of my eye. He had answered the phone!
I quickly pressed my phone to my ear. He kept silent, but the familiar sound of breathing told me he
was listening.
Suddenly, I felt dry in my mouth.My mind went nk and I didn’t know what to say.
After a while, I snapped, “This is Olive.”
Hearing him sneer on the other end of the phone, I blushed and I could imagine that she was shing a
smirk with one hand in her pocket and holding the phone with the other.
“I thought she wasn’t in your address book anymore,” Aaron said sarcastically.
I told myself that he had to contain my anger because I needed to ask him for help!
So, I forced myself to ignore his sarcasm and said, “I got in trouble. And only you can help me.”
Before he could finish speaking, he interrupted me with an exaggeratedugh: “Ha! Olive, why do you
think I’ll help you when you’re in trouble?”
His tone suddenly turned cold as he asked, “Who do you think you are?”
Aaron was always like this, so he was mentally prepared. He had never loved me, so he wouldn’t have
any feelings for me after I scolded him harshly.
But he didn’t want to apologize. It was he who had betrayed me when we were dating. Even if I wanted
to ask him for help now, I wouldn’t swallow my pride.
I took a deep breath and said, “David Ford threatened me.”
Aaron was always so perceptive that he asked, “Are you in the United States?”
“Yes, I am in a hotel near Harvard. Do you remember Nick? He is one of my best friends. David tricked
him, so he came to take me away. But David threatened to kick him out of the Institute.”
After telling him everything in one go, I said, “David is crazy and twisted. But I don’t know anyone who
gets along with him, except you.”
I first met David at an auction four years ago. He and Aaron had been in obvious conflict then, and the
hated David so much, she must have evidence against him.
Aaron was silent, so I uncertainly asked, “Hello? You are listening?”
Aaron’s breathing sounded heavier on the phone.
What was he thinking? A ray of hope rose in my heart.
“You can help? Any way of dealing with him will do. I owe you one”.
“You can’t beat him! Don’t go looking for trouble,” Aaron replied coldly before hanging up the phone.
It was so sudden!
What the hell!
Hearing the beeps on the phone, I was furious!
But suddenly he had hung up on me!
“F*ck, you bastard!”
Looking at the phone screen, I wished that I couldmunicate with him through the phone and p
him.
I was furious!So, I paced back and forth by the window, trying to calm down.
“Sure enough, men are not trustworthy!” Dr?мanоvels
I should not have naively thought that he would do me this favor. But it was also a good thing. After all,
now he had seen reality.
Gd helped those who helped themselves.
Suddenly, Nick called me.
“Did David contact you?”
“Yeah!”
I got angry again. And now there was only one thought in my mind. I swore that I would use what
mattered most to him to destroy him!
